Abstract
A patient with AMI caused by a large thrombus in the proximal LAD was successfully treated with PTCA and an intracoronary lysis combined wit h the platelet-receptor antagonist c7E3. Analysis oi cellular hemostas is after 1 and 6 months revealed a sustained platelet activation despi te combined anti-platelet therapy with ASB and ticlopidine. A progredi ent slow-flow phenomenon appeared during central angiographies, confir med by intracoronary Doppler examination. (C) 1998 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
